Example 1

(8) (1) Preparation of a Resin Composition

(9) Polyvinyl alcohol having an average degree of polymerization of 1,700 was acetalized with n-butyraldehyde to give polyvinyl butyral (acetyl group content: 1 mol %, butyral group content: 69 mol %, hydroxy group content: 30 mol %). To 100 parts by mass of the polyvinyl butyral was added 40 parts by mass of triethylene glycol-di-2-ethylhexanoate (3GO) as a plasticizer, and kneaded well with a mixing roll to give a resin composition.

(10) (2) Production of an Interlayer Film for a Laminated Glass

(11) The obtained resin composition was extruded from an extruder to form an interlayer film for a laminated glass with a uniform thickness.

(12) (3) Formation of Fine Protrusions and Recesses in the First Step

(13) According to Production Example 1, fine protrusions and recesses were formed on both surfaces (first surface and second surface) of the interlayer film for a laminated glass to adjust the glossiness of the surface.

(14) Here, an embossing roll produced by the following method was used.

(15) As an embossing roll production step 1, blasting was performed on the surface of a metal roll using a #36 abrasive material made of aluminum oxide at a discharge pressure of 50×10.sup.4 Pa. After the embossing roll production step 1, the ten-point average roughness Rz of the roll surface measured in conformity with JIS B-0601 (1994) was 65 μm.

(16) Next, as an embossing roll production step 2, partial grinding was performed using a #400 to #1000 grinding stone. After the embossing roll production step 2, the ten-point average roughness Rz of the roll surface measured in conformity with JIS B-0601 (1994) was 40 μm.

(17) Then, as an embossing roll production step 3, blasting was performed using #320 abrasive material made of aluminum oxide at a discharge pressure of 50×10.sup.4 Pa, thereby preparing an embossing roll.

(18) A pair of thus prepared embossing rolls was used as a device for transferring a pattern of protrusions and recesses to form fine protrusions and recesses on both surfaces of the obtained interlayer film for a laminated glass. The transferring conditions employed here were a temperature of the interlayer film for a laminated glass of 80° C., a temperature of the rolls of 145° C., a linear velocity of 10 m/min, a line width of 1.5 m, and a linear pressure of 1 to 100 kN/m.

(19) The ten-point average roughness (Rz) of the film surface after the formation of fine protrusions and recesses measured in conformity with JIS B-0601 was 12 μm. The obtained interlayer film had an average thickness of 760 μm.

(20) (4) Formation of Recesses in the Shape of Engraved Lines by Second Step

(21) To the surface of the interlayer film for a laminated glass after the first step was provided protrusions and recesses each having a groove shape with a continuous bottom by the following procedure. A pair of rolls including a metal roll having a surface processed with a triangular oblique line-type mill and a rubber roll having a JIS hardness of 45 to 75 was used as a device for transferring a pattern of protrusions and recesses. The interlayer film for a laminated glass after the first step was passed through the device for transferring a pattern of protrusions and recesses, thereby forming protrusions and recesses where recesses each having a groove shape with a continuous bottom are parallel to each other at equal intervals on the first surface of the interlayer film for a laminated glass. The transferring conditions employed here were a temperature of the interlayer film for a laminated glass of 70° C., a temperature of the rolls of 140° C., a linear velocity of 10 m/min, and a linear pressure to 1 to 100 kN/m for producing the desired roughness.

(22) Then, the same operations were performed on the second surface of the interlayer film for a laminated glass to form recesses each having a groove shape with a continuous bottom. At that time, the intersection angle formed between the recesses each having a groove shape (shape of an engraved line) with a continuous bottom on the first surface and the recesses each having a groove shape (shape of an engraved line) with a continuous bottom on the second surface was set to 20°.

(23) (5) Measurement of Protrusions and Recesses on the First Surface and the Second Surface

(24) (5-1) Glossiness Measurement

(25) The glossiness was measured using a gloss meter (“GM-26PRO” available from Murakami Color Research Laboratory) by the method of measurement 2 described in JIS Z 8741-1997. The interlayer film for a laminated glass was left to stand on a sample table, and the glossiness was measured while the interlayer film for a laminated glass was rotated so that the angle of the groove shape of each recess relative to the irradiation direction of a light source was changed. Here, the minimum glossiness was taken as the glossiness of the interlayer film for a laminated glass of the present invention.

(26) (5-2) Rz Value Measurement

(27) The ten-point average roughness (Rz) on both surfaces of the obtained interlayer film for a laminated glass was measured by the method in conformity with JIS B-0601 (1994) using “Surfcorder SE300” available from Kosaka Laboratory Ltd. The measurement was performed using a stylus profilometer at a cut-off value of 2.5 mm, a standard length of 2.5 mm, an evaluation length of 12.5 mm, and a measurement rate of 0.5 mm/s, with a stylus having a tip radius of 2 μm and a tip angle of 60°. The measurement environment was 23° C. and 30 RH %. The stylus was moved in a direction perpendicular to the groove direction of engraved lines.

(28) (5-3) Sm Measurement

(29) The Sm values of the first surface and second surface of the obtained interlayer film for a laminated glass were measured using a “Surfcorder SE300” available from Kosaka Laboratory Ltd. The measurement was performed using a stylus profilometer at a cut-off value of 2.5 mm, a standard length of 2.5 mm, an evaluation length of 12.5 mm, and a measurement rate of 0.5 mm/s, with a stylus having a tip radius of 2 μm and a tip angle of 60°. The measurement environment was 23° C. and 30 RH %. The stylus was moved in a direction perpendicular to the direction of grooves in the shape of engraved lines.

(30) (5-4) Haze Value Measurement

(31) The haze value was measured by the method described in JIS K 7105-1981 with a haze and transmittance meter (“HM-150” available from Murakami Color Research Laboratory). Here the interlayer film for a laminated glass was set in such a manner that the first surface was on the light source side.
